Import Tips
• Verify purity and chemical identity with certificates of analysis to confirm classification as chemically defined inorganic salt
• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and ensure proper hazardous material labeling for thiocyanate compounds
• Avoid misclassification as organic chemicals in Chapter 29 by confirming inorganic base salt status
